uttered q; heartbroken cry and rusned
down the path, past the house and across

he determined to try and save her.

and her clothing buoyed her tor some: mo

irntil they were both covered. A roar as
Nofthundeff flied his ears, and his head
seemed about to burst, but he managed TO
preserve some coolness. By 8 violent
effort. hs loosened Niya's frantic embrace,

outof the mud and gained o firm foothold,
exhausted and gasping for breath.
Though his strength was almost gone
and his knees tottered, he held Niya TO
\ his breast, looking anxiously into her
! face. Her eyes were closed, and her head
fell heavily on his arm, the hair, from
: which the fastenings were gone, falling
over his shoulder in q thick mass and
floating on the stream.
The Incident had been observed from
I thA chaya, and o number Of men now
stood ON the bank, by whose aid the two
Z were soon placed in safety. When Kan-
/ pei had seen the girl restored to anima-
4 tion and given In charge OF the female
servants, heiwas forced TO join the other
! guests, by whom he was clapped on the
shoulders and praised as q hero.

the old hay,S story madadt ssevidents that
the subsequent sendsng Of the money was
chiefly due to Niya's intercession. Then
i it occurred to him that the girls present

her relative on this very subject, and the
idea made. him remorseful. Finally he
was informed ! that, despite her engage
